96 Displaying the Time Code / Switching the Display of the 3D Video SignalChapter 4 OperationsDisplaying the Time CodeThe time code superimposed on the SDI signals isdisplayed.As the time code is superimposed on the video signal, thetime code may be invisible partially because of the scanmode setting of the monitor.1 Input the SDI signal.2 Select the channel.3 Set the time code in the Time Code menu (page 75) ofthe On Screen Set menu of the System Configurationmenu.To set the type of the time codeSet in the VITC/LTC menu.VITC: Sets to VITC.LTC: Sets to LTC.To set the display position for the time codeSet in the Position menu.Top Left: To display it at top left on the screenTop Center: To display at top center on the screenTop Right: To display at top right on the screenBottom Left: To display at bottom left on the screenBottom Center: To display at bottom center on thescreenBottom Right: To display at bottom right on thescreenTo set the luminance of the time codeSet in the Level menu.High: To make the time code display brightLow: To make the time code display dark4 Set Time Code (page 70) to On in the Function Switchmenu of the Function Setting menu or by pressing theTime Code button 1) of the controller.The time code is displayed.1) Time Code is assigned to a function button of the controller in theFunction Key menu (page 83) of the Controller menu.To cancel the time code displaySet Time Code (page 70) to Off in the Function Switchmenu of the Function Setting menu or by pressing theTime Code button of the controller.Use the controller with software version 1.4 or higher toassign Time Code function to a function button of thecontroller.Switching the Display ofthe 3D Video SignalWhen the optional BKM-250TG input adaptor is installed,the left (L) and right (R) 3D video signals in dual-streamHD-SDI format can be compared on the screen (3D signalanalyzing function).For this function, two-dimensional (2D) view is used. Thesignals are not displayed in stereoscopic view.The following five display modes are available:For details on the input adaptor (BKM-250TG), see “InputAdaptors” on page 22.Difference displayThe difference between the luminance signal of the left (L)signal and that of the right (R) signal is displayed.A gray portion indicates that the luminance level of the twosignals is the same. When the luminance level of the twosignals is not the same, a monochrome image is displayedaccording to the difference in the luminance. This functionis useful for checking the amount of parallax.Checkerboard displayThe left (L) and right (R) signals are displayed in acheckerboard pattern on the same screen for comparing thebrightness or colors of the L and R signals.L/R Switch displayThe left (L) and right (R) signals are switched alternatelyon the screen for comparing the brightness or colors of theL and R signals.Horopter Check displayThe display mode for the left (L) and right (R) 3D videosignals can be switched for easy checking of the twosignals. Set Horopter Check (page 66) in the 3D Settingmenu of the Function Setting menu to one of the displayNoteNoteLeft signal (L) Right signal (R)Checkerboard display
